TAS Recommended! Rated a 'Best Audiophile Label Recording' in the November 2009 issue of The Absolute Sound!

The 1960 release of Joan Baez' self-titled debut album featured thirteen
traditional folk songs, including definitive readings of "All My Trials",
"Silver Dagger", and "Fare Thee Well". Most of the songs featured only Baez'
vocals and intricate guitar work, with a second guitar added to a handful of
songs. Despite the lack of strings and horns, backup singers and catchy singles,
the album went gold and raised Joan Baez to superstar status.
